lyrics

I woke up at night but everything's all right
wanna go back to bed but can't find the time
so what do you see with your changing eyes
just the world's gone mad, yeah the world's gone mad

don't wanna talk about all the problems at hand
when you think about it, all's just sinking sand
it's a day away to doom but I'm always fine
just remember that you're first world top of the line

don't wanna take a trip to the movie rental
don't wanna make my way to the CD store
don't wanna have to see y'all face to face
just wanna live my life like I own this space

can't see you face to face 'cause I look like a fool
but the people in posters, they don't look back at you
I can't help myself now though I feel like I've been lied to
chasing you in circles getting back to where I started

so I wanna talk to you but I don't know how
and I got no one to hold on to
but we are one in an endless stream
and I get tired of waiting in line

so make believe I do everything on my own
please try to tell me who I'm supposed to listen to
with everything around me so crystal clear
shouting to get ahold of my attention here

speak your words, they all sound the same
is anybody out there even listening to you
everybody's right and everybody's wrong
what all these people say don't matter no more

so reality is made up of what you make of it
but you've gone now to shut the whole world out of it
I was not afraid but you've made me like this
'cause I should be afraid, yeah I should be afraid

pickup lines, pick a fight, pick one choice and one only
don't get caught in your mind, don't step over the lines
make it firm, settle down, set the terms, and draw the lines
this is where we stand our ground and we don't move one inch

so I wanna talk to you but I don't know how
and I got no one to hold on to
but we are one in a water bubble
and I get tired of climbing the rungs

so I wanna talk to you but I don't know how
and I got no one to hold on to
but we are one in an endless stream
and I get tired of waiting in line
